Bexar Democrats’ leader likens foes to insects

Calling his detractors worms, jerks, morons, idiots and liars, Bexar County Democratic Chairman Dan Ramos said Thursday that he’d resign “when hell freezes over” despite demands he quit immediately due to his harsh words about fellow Democrats.

Denying allegations that he has disparaged gay party members and others, Ramos cast himself as an old friend of minorities. But he also compared gay Democrats to insects, called several local elected Democrats “yo-yos,” and found a common denominator among the Texas Stonewall Democratic Caucus, the tea party and the Nazi party.

The Stonewall Democrats are the Texas Democratic Party’s official lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender caucus.

“They all have these weird ideas about how our society can function better,” Ramos said.

Singling out the Stonewall Democrats, Ramos said “they have infiltrated the Bexar County party, much like termites infiltrate your house. They’re trying to destroy what has been around for a long time,” he said.

They must have made a mistake. It says this idiot is a Democratic Chairman.
